There was the rumor of a beautiful sky witch, who soared across the heavens in a great silver balloon. And there were whispers of a terrible ogre made entirely of chocolate, who lured unsuspecting souls with that rich promising smell, only to cast them down a bottomless pit from which there was no return.Everlost, the limbo land of dead children, is at war. Nick the "Chocolate Ogre" wants to help the children of Everlost reach the light at the end of the tunnel. Mary Hightower, self-proclaimed queen of lost children and dangerous fanatic, is determined to keep Everlost's children trapped within its limbo for all eternity. Traveling in the memory of the Hindenburg, Mary is spreading her propaganda and attracting Afterlights to her cause at a frightening speed.Meanwhile, Allie the Outcast travels home to seek out her parents, along with Mikey, who was once the terrifying monster the McGill. Allie is tempted by the seductive thrill of skinjacking the living, until she learns a shocking secret: Those who skinjack are not actually dead.Critically acclaimed author Neal Shusterman writes a book about life, death, and how the choices we make define ourselves in this luminous sequel to Everlost, which Orson Scott Card called "marvelously inventive...and magically beautiful."

Everlost is populated by children who died ...

I wasn't going to continue after book 1 in this trilogy, but I'm glad I did. The stakes and shape of the rest of the series surge in this second adventure.

3.0 Everwild
Giravano delle voci. Voci di cose terribili, di cose sublimi, di cose troppo grandi da tenere per sé e che quindi venivano tranquillamente trasmesse da un’anima all’anima, da un Ultraluce all’altro. Giravano voci di una bellissima strega, chiamata Strega del Cielo, che saliva verso il paradiso a bor...

4.0 Everwild
I enjoyed Everwild much more so than Everlost. This second installlment in the Skinjacker series was much more insightful than the first book. Shusterman continued to give great references--Challenger space shuttle, Underground Atlanta and even Graceland. But, this novel, did not have me laughing as...

4.5 Stars Everlost is the place where sticks and stones won’t break your bones but names can always hurt you. It is also where things that were once loved and are destroyed in the real world might find themselves almost like an echo.“Great tragedies have great consequences. They ripple through the ...
